Depends what you want from the car.

3.91 = slightly better acceleration, slightly worse economy, will be pulling slightly more revs on the motorway at a given speed.
3.73 = slightly worse acceleration, slightly better economy, slighly less revs on the motorway!

These aren't big differences...
What have you got on there at the mo?
